Symposium Set To Show Ag's Sustainable Solutions

The federal government upped its climate-smart ag game this week, announcing a new $1-billion commitment to finance agricultural commodity pilot projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions or sequester carbon. As was widely predicted, the new Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities program will be financed through the Commodity Credit Corporation.

We’re especially excited, then, to be gathering next week in Nashville at the annual Trust In Food Symposium, where we’ll explore our theme “Climate-Smart State of Mind: Partnering for Progress” together with over 100 leaders in agriculture, food and sustainability. The following week, we’ll continue the Symposium virtually with all new speakers and content. Late registrations to both of these free, space-limited events are still available here.

Climate-smart agriculture and greenhouse gases were also a big topic of discussion at CattleCon, the Cattle Industry Convention in Houston, Texas, last week. We introduced Trust In Beef, our program connecting the cattle industry with sustainability resources, to the wider industry through a terrific reception, video and presence on the trade show floor.

As you can tell, all of us at Trust In Food are definitely in a “Climate-Smart State of Mind”. We’re looking forward to connecting with many of you at the Symposium in Nashville, and online!

Yours in regenerative ag,
